**Storyline:**
Two intellectually driven young men, Brandon Shaw (John Dall) and Phillip Morgan (Farley Granger), murder their former Harvard classmate, David Kentley (Dick Hogan), in their Manhattan penthouse. Their motive is purely intellectual—to execute the “perfect murder” and prove their supposed superiority. After concealing David’s body in a large antique chest, they host a dinner party at their apartment, which boasts a stunning view of Manhattan’s skyline. Among the guests, unaware of the crime, are David’s father, Mr. Kentley (Cedric Hardwicke), his aunt, Mrs. Atwater (Constance Collier), his fiancée, Janet Walker (Joan Chandler), and her former lover, Kenneth Lawrence (Douglas Dick).
Brandon uses the chest housing the body as a buffet table for the party, while Phillip grows increasingly anxious and drinks excessively. The murder plan was inspired by their former prep-school housemaster, Rupert Cadell (James Stewart), who had once discussed Nietzsche’s concept of the Übermensch and the “art of murder” as a display of superiority. Rupert is also among the guests, as Brandon believes he would appreciate their “work of art.” Throughout the evening, Brandon drops subtle hints about David’s absence, sparking a conversation about the philosophy of murder.
While Brandon remains composed, Phillip struggles to hide his guilt. When Mrs. Atwater, who claims to have fortune-telling abilities, tells Phillip that his hands will bring him great fame, she refers to his piano skills. However, Phillip interprets this as a reference to his role in the murder.
